The album has received good reviews but yeah, whoever deals with PR for the Manics has failed a bit with this album, not the bands fault at all though.
I think my HMV were doing promotion for the entire country then!

No, there were huge posters in my local store as well. You can't fault the promotion there.

Does anyone think it'll be reduced in price for when the 2nd single is out and it'll sell some more and climb back into the charts briefly? I reckon it may do, but with it coming up to Xmas sales may be higher to for stuff in general....hey, maybe the Manics album will sell afterall as Xmas presents for people!

So much for mass communication it's not even in the top 200 i tunes albums despite the drop in price.
